The Luna Vista Eagle A/E looks like it belongs in an art gallery. The intricate panoramic scene on its multi-wood top is simply breathtaking. That said, this acoustic-electric guitar isn’t a piece of wall art; it’s a musical instrument that’s meant to be played. Wrap your hand around its ebony-capped mahogany neck, and you’ll get it. And once you experience the warmth, projection, and midrange punch of its Grand Concert-sized body, you’ll be hooked. Beyond that, its Fishman Presys pickup system ensures that when you hit the stage, top-shelf acoustic tone will follow you. The Vista Eagle A/E features an eye-catching flame maple binding, mother-of-pearl fingerboard inlays, and a stunning gloss finish.

Great-sounding koa body and eye-catching multi-wood top





The Vista Eagle A/E boasts a koa body. Tonally, koa combines the midrange of mahogany with the high end of maple. Take note ? a new koa instrument may sound excessively bright; however, the more it’s played the more the sound will open up. A well-played koa guitar will sound rich, sweet, and resonant, especially for fingerstylists. The Vista Eagle A/E also features an ornate top made of quilt mahogany, padauk, bird’s-eye maple, koa, and flame maple ? you’ll have a hard time taking your eyes off of this acoustic-electric guitar!





Fishman Presys electronics yield amazing plugged-in tone





The Fishman Presys pickup system in the Vista Eagle A/E supplies amazing plugged-in tone, along with exceptional sound shaping. A 3-band EQ enables you to dial in your ideal sound, while a Notch filter eliminates unwanted feedback. What’s more, a Brilliance control thrusts you to the forefront of the stage mix. You also get a Phase control for tackling issues that arise when recording direct and using a mic at the same time. The guitarists at Sweetwater appreciate the Presys ’s built-in Tuner ? it’s a lifesaver when you’re onstage!





Grand Concert body provides excellent comfort and tonal balance





The Luna Vista Eagle A/E features a Grand Concert-shaped body. Not too small, and not too big, Grand Concert bodies exhibit clarity, focus, and a balanced tone that sits well in a mix. They also project well for a smaller instrument. Grand Concert-bodied acoustics like the Vista Eagle A/E are comfortable to play ? a perfect fit if you’re a fingerstylist or have shorter arms. You also get a cutaway, which gives you easy access to this guitar’s upper frets.
